Storms to frequent central, eastern US well into November

By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

In the wake of the potent nor'easter prior to Halloween, the storms will keep rolling along over the central and eastern part of the United States well into November.

"The main storm track may set up well inland, rather than along the Atlantic coast," according to AccuWeather Long-Range Meteorologist Max Vido.

"The pattern in the East does not look especially cold, but there may be bouts of brief chill behind the storms."

In fact, in most of the East, temperatures will climb above normal for the start of November ahead of a new storm.

Below-average temperatures may have more staying power over the Central states.

"Significant snow is likely to be limited to the northern tier with the storms even in much of the Midwest," Vido said.

The first storm will be one of the weaker systems to target the region and is essentially an Alberta clipper with origins in western Canada.

After spreading some rain to a large part of the Midwest into Sunday, the clipper storm will turn eastward into Monday.

Isolated thunderstorms, which can produce small hail, can rumble over a few communities.

The clipper storm may bring some wet snowflakes to the central Appalachians and another round of rain to the eastern end of the Ohio Valley, the mid-Atlantic and southeastern New England late Sunday and Sunday night.

Since this feature will bring chilly air along with it, there may be a small accumulation of wet snow over the higher elevations from West Virginia to Maine during and behind the storm Sunday night into Monday.

The next storm on deck is likely to develop over the Central states Tuesday into Wednesday. This includes Texas, which will snap the streak of dry weather that began there this past Thursday.

Multiple locations in Texas have already tallied their wettest autumn on record or will finish with their wettest on record by the end of November.

This storm is likely to be larger and have more impact on travel and outdoor plans than the clipper storm this weekend.

A round of drenching rain and thunderstorms is possible on Halloween over part of the Central states. Flash flooding may threaten a part of the Ohio or Tennessee valley, while locally severe thunderstorms may erupt in the South Central states.

Some of the storm's rain will streak to a part of New England at midweek before the storm impacts more of the East with drenching rain and thunderstorms late in the week.

The busy weather pattern may not stop there.

One or two more storms may track through or develop across the Central states next weekend. AccuWeather meteorologists are monitoring the potential for a storm to also brew along the East Coast during this time.

Even beyond that storm, the busy weather pattern is likely to continue with the possibility of a large storm on Election Day with more significant impacts for the Central states. Rain may spread up the Atlantic coast around this time, as well.

"It may not be until mid- to late-November when there are longer breaks of dry weather for the majority of the Central and Eastern states," Vido said.

"However, then you are getting into some colder weather and lake-effect in the Upper Midwest and part of the Northeast," he said.
